Photography - Power Lines

i love the way the lines looked...any thoughts?

Photograph - Neighborhood Sunsets

the sun was going down today so i grabbed my camera...i couldn't resist :)

the view was so pretty! even from my front yard..

would have looked better from the roof....haha

yesterday; it was fun :)

(^alix & me^)

that girl has been my best friend since i was 8, i can say she's like a big sister to me

she's always looking out for me and is always trying to help

(but is sometimes misunderstood, like all the rest of us)

she had a dentist appointment yesterday, little did i know her dentist is in SEARS

so she asked me to come up and meet her so we could hang out

since the mall is right up the street, i go!

turns out to be a good decision because i had alot of fun

a little later, Becca and Courtney come up to meet us

which i was also very happy about because they're amazing :)

the first picture is of Alix & Courtney

the second is of Becca and Alix

you may not be able to tell, but Courtney and Becca are twins!

after we were there for a while, we were all hungry

but us being teenagers, we were all broke

so me and Alix trot on down to my house and bring back 3 slices of cheese

(requested by courtney) and a box of cereal

(i took this one while we were walking)

because we're short of money, i have a knock off of honey bunches of oats [lol]

courtney liked her cheese and we all crunched the life out of that cereal until it was half gone

but who wants to carry around a bag of cereal around in the mall?

(alix kinda destroyed the box, haha)

so becca decided she would be cereal-pregnant

what did i tell ya? hahaha

alot of people came, my friend Tiffiny came and i saw Catherine, Courtney's girlfriend Sheridan came later with some people and a bunch of other people i didn't know were also there...

but who i was really happy to see was him^

Nicko, he's my boyfriend :D

i hadn't seen him in a while so i was glad to see him again

funny thing about that car,

i was sitting over on the other side at one point and he was sitting down on the edge

he kissed me and the car started laughing! we were cracking up lol

i wish i hadn't have had to go home or i would have had more fun

but my mom was getting mad so i left

of course when i got home, she wasnt even there

i was mad, but still a good day :)

just another brick in the wall

my favorite band shirt, pink floyd!

i like the first one better but the second one shows off the shirt better

"we don't need no education"

well, i think we dont need it if we dont want it...

..school should be optional for the kids who dont want it

then the kid and the teacher both wont waste thier time

could actually save alot of tax dollars

global warming and natural selection...

*photo courtesy of photobucket*

you know what's a little wierd, the fact that i was randomly thinking about natural selection and global warming...i never really think about stuff like that. But, anyway, i was thinking...if scientists believe in global warming and that its gonna happen...then why don't they believe that because of natural selection we'll survive anyway? if natural selection is true (which i believe it is, i am a creationist and natural selection is not an evolutionary theory, they support natural selection at the Creation Museum and Answers in Genesis) then we will be able to adapt to the heat and effects of "global warming" just as man and animal kind has throughout the generations. Some species died out, yes, i know, but that is not my point.

see, i do think about more things than coffee!

just some thoughts...

i was just playing with make-up the other day and ended up looking like that^

i'm not sure what i did, but i kinda like it, haha

i've been writing alot lately, probably because i've been thinking alot

it's not usually a good thing...

i need to be constantly distracted,

but sometimes my camera and mp3 player's batteries die

and it's not a prety sight!

[i never am i pretty sight, especially not right now]

it's about 11:00 pm,

i'm tired, kinda hungry, bored

-TYPICAL NIGHT IN THE LIFE OF BERRY-

yesterday was good, i saw alot of people

first i saw Alix, but she had to leave

then i went and hung out with Marquis and we found Matthew

of course, he was awkwardly sitting outside Marquis's place for no apparrent reason

Marquis left to go see his girlfriend Jamie, but

he came back, brought her over and introduced me to her 

i felt really special!

not only was i excited that i got to meet my big brother's girlfriend (basically wife)

but i was also a little star-struck!

i had heard alot about her, but never met her

or really seen her, or talked to her...

BUT i have read her poems

and they are

EXTRAORDINARY

i'm a huge fan of her writing even though i have only read a few

her writing style is really unique, dark and beautiful all at the same time

i was so happy to meet her :)

[if you wanna read her poems go to intellectindisguise.blogspot.com]

and they are the

CUTEST COUPLE EVER IN THE HISTORY OF...COUPLE-NESS!

as soon as i saw them both i was just like "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaww!!!!"

such a sight to behold :)

i'm so happy for them, you can just tell they've got something special

also before i left, Steph dropped by for a little bit.

well, i'm getting back into my artsy side, so you'll be seeing alot more edits, art, photography, and more.

until tommorow, i'll leave you all with my expiriment...

yeah, thats me!

BERRY'S ROCKIN THE RUBY REDS!

sike...that looks ugly...haha

just an experiment.

(didn't work out too well)

Painting - Souls Entwined

it is actually quite sad how this painting came to be, i was sad

i call it "Souls Entwined," the sybolism is apparent

the two souls are wrapped in eachother's arms 

and

in love

entwined

within eachother

...

the world around them contrasts

like it's rejected them

they're both rejected in almost the same way

(just as the close colors suggest)

and as they embrace,

a heart is thier shape

this painting is a sign of how i long for love

how i long for my soul to be entwined with another's

The title is inspired by the song "Cyanide Sun" by H.I.M.

One of my favorites...here are the lyrics[from leoslyrics.com]

Should've known how hard it is to stop tearing each other apart

Separating souls entwined with all these labyrinthine lies


I am dead to you, a shadow doomed
My love, forever in the dark
And of all untruths the truest is you
Too close to my heart


This emptiness I've made my home
Embracing memories of dreams long gone
One last caress from the corpse of love is all I want
Underneath the cyanide sun


We've sailed the seas of grief on a raft built with our tears
Looking for a way to disappear for a moment from our deepest fears

I'll be drowning you in this river of gloom
Forever in my heart

This emptiness I've made my home

Embracing memories of dreams long gone
One last caress from the corpse of love is all I want
Underneath the cyanide sun

it makes me think of how i was feeling...but also about love and passion

"souls entwined" ...when you feel that your soul is entwined with someone else's...

you must truly just head over heels for them and you will truly never leave

it's got to be the most beautiful feeling in the world

my two favorite shots from yesterday...

i was sitting in NCH next to a church talking to my friend Matthew yesterday,

we were having an interesting conversation about anything and everything.

its always nice to talk to him cuz we always have interesting conversations.

i was looking up at the hill behind us, i didnt remember it...

i liked the way the clouds look so i tried to take a picture of it.

i got the gate the irst time by accident, but both shots turned out good.

that day was just as fantastic, the weather and the fun both.
